petition to make it mandatory to state the episode of every tv show/movie gif that has been posted so you can go back and watch it in full
For obvious reasons, I’m fucking pissed about this.
There’s a website where you can learn ASL on your own and it is free and the woman on there, her name is Rochelle Barlow, she runs the site and she actually is a homeschool teacher and teaches ASL. I am passing this on to you guys cause most people on here is open-minded. Well, whoever of y’all reads this will possibly ignore this but if you are a curious george like me and wants to learn ASL she’s your gal.
Rochelle has a free program called Learn ASL in 31 days, currently I am on day 10ish or 12, (idk I’m on learning my numbers currently) but I believe this site will help people that are either curious about ASL and just wants to learn, or actually is Deaf but can’t afford to going to actual class or something, or just hard of hearing.
I am truly in love with learning with Rochelle, she isn’t those interpreters that will talk while she signs, (and I’ve searched through Youtube how to sign but the person talking will distract me and I would get confused) and it is all in video which is a good thing. I found her through Youtube, that’s where she has all her videos. Just check out her site. You’ll like it.
So Strong
Disabled people shouldn’t have to prove that they’re “disabled enough” to be considered valid. We shouldn’t have to jump through hoops for abled people to recognize our struggles.
i feel so bad even making this post but i’m a 22 year old mentally ill autistic who lives in a very emotionally abusive household with the same parent who sexually and physically abused me as a child and i’ve been told i have until the end of the year before i’m being kicked out
i haven’t done anything wrong except fail to be the independent, successful, neurotypical person that my father keeps expecting me to be. he refuses to acknowledge my autism and in his mind there’s nothing keeping me from getting my college degree and being like everyone else except my own laziness. so he’s gonna cut me off by a certain date. my mom died five years ago and i’m still mourning the loss of her unconditional love and support while trapped in the presence of someone who has abused me my entire life. it’s absolute hell
i don’t have any friends, and no family that i would feel comfortable confiding in about my situation. i don’t know how to cook or pay bills or anything pertaining to being on my own, let alone have the financial resources or income to do it. i do have a job as a grocery store cashier but it doesn’t pay nearly enough for me to be financially stable or to afford a place of my own. plus working too many hours is very detrimental to my physical and mental health. the only reason why i have a job in the first place is because i’ve been forced into pushing myself beyond my levels of comfort and i was threatened to have basic necessities taken away if i didn’t comply, even if it causes me unnecessary amounts of stress and anxiety
i’m honestly terrified because the day will come sooner or later when my dad tells me to get out and i won’t have anywhere to go or any money to survive on my own. i’ve had this post saved in my drafts for months because i know that to a lot of people, my situation isn’t as dire or important as others and i couldn’t bring myself to ask for help because i feel like i don’t deserve it
i know it’s a lot to ask but if there’s any way you can help, my paypal is alexagreenleaf@gmail.com or there’s a donate button on my blog. every small amount will be appreciated and put towards escaping my dad. even just signal boosting this will help if you’re unable to donate
why is it so hard 2 make friends :(
Except I look bad in all light-period.
